Since we have a super strong convoy and we have few friends who missed out on last drive as well - I have extended the convoy. @Mark B and @Ahmad Nerat you both are added to the convoy. What this means - more focus, more challenge and ofcourse more fun. See you all this Saturday 😀 @Varun Mehndiratta extra sharpened shovel? 😂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Varun Mehndiratta Posted April 28, 2023 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Dear Sailors WIth less than 18 hours to go for our drive, find below the details. Meeting Time : 545am (we still have 2 WL drivers, so no excuses of friday night party, alarm didnt buzz would be acceptable). Radio Channel : 3 Convoy Order : A long convoy in Area 53 is going to be super fun. As i mentioned in my Intro to drive, this is an area, where one stuck could lead to multiple and its super tough to retract. So, we will go ahead with our shield - The Platoon concept - this is a drive which will really test the skill of Platoon leaders, so come prepared all - with all ropes, shovel, jacks - set and ready. Varun in Maroon Wrangler @Ishak on his Dolphin Pajero will be my wing man as SL. @Bashar Beasha on his Safari will be at no. 3 @Ahmad Nerat with his LC on no. 4 @Benjamin Will be our 1st Platoon leader. As Spidey's uncle Ben once said - with every promotion comes greater responsibility. Congrats on INT promotion @Mark B on his black gladiator will be at no. 6 exploring his first FB+ drive. @Bjoern at no. 7 in his Silver Wrangler. @Jaro Tuzinsky with his phone fully secured will be rocking position 8 on his FJC. @Sunil Mathew on his Fortuner will be our 2nd Platoon leader. Good position to test the new tyres. @Patrick van der Loo on his TJ will be at perfect 10. @Gary F on his sandrunner at number 11 @Felix Obst at no. 12 with his White Wrangler @Krishna R our lone Xterra will be sweeping the convoy. So, see you all tomo morning, all set to take a leap in beautiful Area 53. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark B Posted April 29, 2023 Report Share Posted April 29, 2023 Thanks for the drive today Varun! Was a challenging first F+ for me, few learnings for me! Bring an air hose 😂 thanks @Bjoern for the loan! Saved my life as did @benjimenwhem I went a bit of track, but mostly I have some self learning to not get frustrated it just makes it worse as was evident towards the end 🫣 thanks again and see you all on the next one 4 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted April 29, 2023 Report Share Posted April 29, 2023 @Mark B I think you got the wrong Benjamin haha no worries though. No need to get frustrated when losing track or unsure of how you should approach your next dune, every off-roader in our pack are there for each other. So if your unsure or not confident ask we have all been in the same situation before! Besides that you drove great for your first FB+! Thanks @Varun Mehndiratta great drive as per usual, it was nice to be in a role where I could practice some navigational skills and supporting ones! Everyone drove great and its still surprising to think we managed to get from start to finish without barely any massive stuck’s or refusals. I was really looking forward to using my shovel 🙃 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick van der Loo Posted April 29, 2023 Report Share Posted April 29, 2023 For the amount of cars we had and the softness of the sand this went extremely smooth today. Thank you @Varun Mehndirattaonce again for guiding us through. You looked very comfortable sitting at the top of the dunes talking us through! My passenger today thought you were a motivational speaker the way you encouraged the group! @Mark B I do hope that the water you saw was just a few drops from the reservoir and no further issues. See you all soon! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
